Life at Northern College

Giving every individual a great learner experience

Northern College is passionate about providing educational opportunities for adult learners who have few or no formal qualifications. We treat everyone as an individual, recognising that everybody has had a different journey to where they are now. We ensure that your experiences at Northern College are positive ones.

College life may differ for you depending on whether you decide to be a residential or non-residential learner, however the majority of facilities and resources are available to all.

You can stay residentially on our short courses as well as on our longer courses such as the Access to HE Diploma.
